Lesser spotted and lovely.
He seems to own some nice bikes too in the back ground.

These engines scare me but that's a whole heap of bavarian horses for not much.

As a blackbird devotee it irks me to link this but there's no denying they're a contender. This one looks sorted and is priced well.

This is true and I imagine there's a lot of owners who will need to sell because of bat flu as well. Mad times on every front eh.

Desirable yokes, well to me anyway. Strong money but looks clean. Missing decals and no pic of lhs. Has a buddy bike, cbr250?

Sooner have the cb750 but that's me fir ya. Have to say he spent and it looks like it wasn't for flipping but rather to own. Paint is top job, stainless spokes on fresh rims, engine prepared lovely. If you have to butcher one do it this way. I'm guessing he's looking for..... 5500?

Japcati2020 · 27-04-2020 3:42pm

Just bought a lovely Ktm supermoto off DD.
In mint condition too with full SH.

Course you can, just dont be silly about it....I got a lovely Honda NC700X last week. Was very straight forward and no ball-yocks at all....... Quick spin for 5-10 mins and you will know if the bike is straight or not.

All done and dusted in 25 mins, never got close left money on wall in envelope and job done. Granted the other lad was sound, if you get some messer it could get messy alright.

nigeldaniel · 29-04-2020 9:44am

I have been in and out of Done Deal for about 2 years and sometimes can't help but think, how can the seller justify 2000-3000 euros for a 22 years old bike. Not just shop but some private sellers are matching those prices. Considering the bike community in Ireland I would think the supply of bikes is matching that. So no I do not think its a supplier issue. plenty coming in from overseas.

Japcati2020 · 29-04-2020 10:07am

What is described as mint condition or showroom condition on the internet can sometimes be a "crock of sh!t" in the flesh.

DD is great for lots of ads like that..........:pac::pac::(

Why does throwing on a brown seat, chopping off god knows how much of a frame and adding some really ****e tyres(for the road) add up to that money?

Don't get me started on the exhaust wrap................

And will do severe damage to the exhaust headers as well.
Not good stuff that wrap especially in condition like we have here with a lot of moisture.

I think when the lockdown ends we will see a big increase in bikes for sale. Sadly, I can't see buyers lining up to spend. God only knows what Harley in Dublin and Waterford will do as they will not sell squid all in these uncertain times.

Yah I reckon brands such as this and Ducati will take a hiding personally. Same for any "luxury item" type thing.

Seeing bikes sold cheap being snapped up quickly already.
Can't see much being sold for normal prices for a long time.
Although prices had gotten out of hand.
Fellas looking for 5-6k for bikes worth under 2k.
I think bmw are going to have a lot of ex PCP bikes on there hands as well.

Where are all the cheap ones or like you say are they snapped up so quickly that all the stuff that is too expensive just sits on Done deal? Bike price expectations in Ireland for 2nd hand stuff is crazy high.

Unfortunately people are looking at UK dealers here when setting prices. And UK dealers prices on used bikes are mental. 2006 R6's are looking for 5k sterling in places and you can often find new bikes discounted for less or similar money to a 4/5 year old version of the same thing. They will sit on used stock for years over there as they are more interested in keeping the PCP/finance madness ticking over

It depends on how much you want/need to sell, tough sell at the moment with restrictions, but later it could be harder with less cash around.

H_Lime · 08-05-2020 11:14am

Bang it up I say but tbh you're best advertising it at the lowest possible price your willing to accept for it. Be a lot of competition to draw a fella in with a fist of readies.

Carb or fi?

shuyin1 · 08-05-2020 1:56pm

Not many good bikes in 400cc range, high kms and overpriced.

Same as myself cept I'm 98 which I thought was last of the carbs, maybe yours was pre reg?
What colour and mileage/condition. Fellas like buying these as a touring package so maybe don't strip any luggage or comfort goodies off.

Check out fb marketplace and done deal some incredibly Savage deals gone in hours.
Well priced bikes don't sit, over priced do.
A vast majority of the bikes on the market are way overpriced.
I seen a yellow 2004 cbr600rr for 4k, for the same price theres 04 cbr 100rr, hyabusas, cheaper 600's of the same vintage.
Only worth what people will pay and you'd want to be a special kind of stupid to pay 4I for a 04 cbr600 rr

Well, I will admit that I have been on the market for an mk1 bandit or sv650 for a while and every time a good turns up for the 2 to 3k price it seems to take off in no time at all. I think a good MK1 will hold its value as most have been canned over the years.

2 to 3 k for a mk1 Bandit? Is that not a bit mad?

Thats the money people are asking. I might point out I tend to go for ones in very good shape.
Bike shops will ask for 1800 euro for a 98 reg bike in fair condition. Some bike shops even stick to 2k and will not budge no matter what.
